Piper Jaffray analysts said rising interest in tablet computers by chief information officers (CIOs) could be a boost for iPad maker Apple, while the computer giant’s five newest products in 2013 could include Apple Radio, Apple TV, a retina display for the iPad mini and a new operating system, according to a report by CNN Money.

Citing data from a fresh survey of 59 corporations, Piper analysts Gene Munster and Douglas Clinton said 57% of CIOs plan to deploy tablet computers in their organizations. That’s up from 46% in 2012.

“We view the greater deployment of tablets as a positive for AAPL given that we believe the iPad has over 60% global tablet share and likely a higher share among enterprises,” the analysts said.

Meanwhile, the Piper analysts predicted Apple Radio and an iPad mini with a retina display to both debut in March; and the launch of iOS 7 and the iPhone 5S in June, and the long-awaited Apple Television in November.
